Eternal Editor Search

Finding the perfect code editor

In my eternal search for a no resource hungry (Python) code editor that can help you getting things done easily and quickly, I started using SublimeText at its 2.0 version (albeit not being an open source project).

I never used Mac OS X TextMate, but some people described SublimeText as a valid alternative to that editor, and I always heard good words about TextMate.

After using SublimeText for almost 4 months, I’m finding myself really happy with the cool working experience it provides and its capabilities.

In the next months I will polish my vim-fu, I want to do some tests using the Chromebook with its Chrome OS for development purposes. Almost all of my dev activities happen online, and through a Google hosted account and Chrome OS has a decent shell with SSH support (and also different SSH plugins available in the Chrome Web Store). I just need a VM, or a VPS somewhere, where to store the code and all the development tools, and see how it plays out.
